Indians pitcher Corey Kluber (finger) could be ready to return from the disabled list Friday against the Mets, according to The Plain Dealer.

Kluber is scheduled to throw a simulated game on Monday, which could be his final hurdle. Pitching coach Mickey Callaway told the newspaper that the right-hander has not lost any arm strength.

"He was only shut down for a week so he was able to keep his velocity," Callaway said.
